Chapter Three

"I can't believe that bastard didn't choose her already, he needs to play his numerous games. " Amanda screamed in anger when we got home.

I was still reeling the fact that I have come really very close to Alpha king Damien and I wasn't even thinking of killing him the entire time only fucking him. My insides squish at the memory of our encounter. Killing Alpha Damien would be hard and I didn't need to let my doubts out because Amanda is already spiting fire.

"I'm sure she's going be the choosen one, " Alpha Krist said obviously trying to calm his beta.

"How can you be so sure about that, well she's barely attractive and wolf less. What's a Luna without a wolf? She's basically useless. We are going to lose this."

"No, we are not going to lose, Amanda. She's his mate. He's going to choose her and we'll get what we want. "

I was momentarily stunned. I'm the Alpha King Damien's mate? I'm speechless. My mate. How... Why didn't I recognize him. I thought I was supposed to know when I see my mate.

"Your scent is everywhere.." I could recall the first words from the Alpha King Damien to me. He really did scent me as his mate. Why didn't I perceive him? Was it because I don't have a wolf yet? My other senses are woefully limited. I turned to Alpha Krist to question him. He seems to know everything about me and it's kind of scary thinking he has that power over me.

"How did you find out that he's my mate? " I asked.

"From your father of course. He planned to use you as a bargaining chip to save his life but I have other ideas instead. Killing the Alpha King would automatically make me the most powerful Alpha bloodline in moonshine pack and I will become the Alpha King."

"You want me to kill the Alpha King Damien so you can take his throne? "

"Shut up your mouth. Need I remind you that you are alive because I saved you that day? If anyone finds out your real identity as the tyrant Alpha Adios' daughter you will be dead or thrown into a worst place than Blackway prison. So you better don't get any ideas. Alpha King Damien will kill you if you ever tell him your true identity. Thanks to me everyone thought you are dead like your family."

"Welcome to the Alpha King Damien's mansion, Miss Freya. As one of the contestant of the Bride Selection I will show you to your room. Alpha King Damien would be present for the welcome dinner which is 8pm. You will meet the other contestants at the dinner too. Now you're allowed to rest and freshen up for the evening. " I nodded and smiled at the Butler as he carried my bags to my assigned room. Alpha King Damien's mansion was huge and monstrous.

My room was exactly how I would have loved it to be. I wondered how he knew my taste. The floral curtains. The view from the window is breathtaking. I was going to love here. I quickly change out of my dress. I have a bag full of beautiful dresses. Amanda didn't hold back in giving me everything I needed to win this Bride Selection. The blood dagger lay at the bottom of my bag. I refuse acknowledging it. It lay there like a taboo, a responsibility I'm running away from. Sighing I let my gown fall to the ground. Tied up a towel before a knock sounded at the door. Thinking it was the Butler I hurried to open it and instantly regretted. The sight of Alpha King Damien at the doorway with

only a thin towel covering me was a very bad idea. My thoughts were instantly clouded by him. My mate.

"Freya, " he said. The sound of my name was my undoing. "I can smell you everywhere that I can't wait until dinner to see you. It's a very strange thing, how this works."

I wet my dry lips.

"You didn't tell me you were the Alpha King Damien," I said, blushing.

"You didn't seem to mind then. You were so eager to get away from me." His eyes rake down my body. I could see the raw hunger in them. He was trying to restrain himself from tearing my towel and having me right now. He needed to mark me as his mate but was restraining himself for reasons I don't know.

"I'll see you at dinner then," I offered breaking off the moment. His eyes were red from desire and I know he's taking a huge self control to hold himself back from claiming me.

"Very well Freya, I will see you at dinner." I quickly closed the door as he left. My heartbeat race frantically, I eased myself into the bathtub and let the soapy water soak my body. A privilege I lacked in the prison. Alpha King Damien, I don't know what to think about him. My sense were too confused to think about him. Kill him or fuck him? After much contemplation I arrived at one conclusion. I was going to fuck Alpha King Damien, make him mine and then kill him after he makes me his bride. That was the only way I could appease Alpha Krist and Amanda. And myself.

I was awoken by a sound and realized that I've fallen asleep in the bathtub. Turning to see a young omega setting out a dress for me. She smiled when she saw that I was awake.

"Hello I'm Beatrice, your handmaid. I'm here to help you dress up for dinner," she said timidly.

"Thank you Beatrice," I said as I climbed out of the bathtub, already cold from the over long shower. Drying myself up I noticed the dress laid out for me. It wasn't one of mine.

"Did Alpha King Damien set this out for me?" I asked feeling silly with a stupid goofy smile on my face. It's a very special gesture. He was my mate after all. An advantage to me.

The girl smiled and nodded. I felt like the princess I have once been as she adorned me the exquisite dress. It's floral pattern was like that of a peacock. It's a kind of dress that would cause heads to turn. My insides melted with happiness. If I was a different girl than I was, then it was going to be called love for her mate. But all was facade that would soon fade when I plunge that blood dagger into Alpha King Damien's chest to stop his heart.
